Well PAV - I definitely plan to visit Vancouver but it will probably be fall time or next spring. So October at the earliest but more like next May/June.
Couple of emergency things have turned my life into a bit of a 💩 show too. May have to cancel some fun stuff to get back to family in Ohio. Hope you can figure things out with parent to give you some time to care for yourself too.
Today is all about airports and airplanes and getting back home.2 -
Hope things settle quickly, Yooly. Safe travels. ✈️1

Yeah, well the blocks to more relevant choices are self "chosen" / inflicted.2

Made it home just before the severe storm warning. 👍 ‘‘twas a long day.2

Dare I even ask how many planes, trains, and automobiles?!

Couple of cars, much driving, two planes, lots of running to the next gate at the airport. That was just on the return home.
Today was more relaxing. Time to sleep off the two hour time difference. Then a run to the grocery store for fresh veggies.

Bunnnnnnnies!!!!!1

How's the green goddess?1

Bunnies!!!!! would be so jealous of our Sunday activities around here. Green soup is going to power the recovery of my eye and boob - with some help from beet, blueberry and spinach smoothies.
I hope it wins the battle soon. I am growing very bored of all this convalescing nonsense.2 -
Besides much sleeping last week (some days I hit 16 hours) I have come to appreciate the wonder of the BBC radio production of John le Carre’s George Smiley novels.
a friend who I read the books with who is madly in love with these radio plays they to convince me to listen to them years ago and I just couldn’t get my head around it… I’m not a big fan of podcasts or audiobooks. But they are perfect for this time. And they might just save my particular version of sanity.

That's a good plan Ms Jade. An awesome one actually.
Told ya so re audiobooks Laurie! 🤣1 -
I know you did…but ironically (because for a couple of decades I worked with writers to create a weekly spoken word radio show/then podcast after the station closed) I really don’t enjoy listening to recorded stories … lol1

Good for you, Athijade. My heart is with you.2

Work has been kicking my behind again this week. Just a lot going on. Once I get through the week things will settle down a bit, then totally back to normal by the end of the month. So if I go silent here and there, that is why.
Thinking about trying to start focusing on my food intake again starting next week. Not sure if that will mean logging or not. Depends on my mental health. It just may mean not buying cake and ice cream lol.2 -
Hang in there Athijade! I think everyone in this group is going through some rough personal issues right now. Life isn’t being kind lately. 🥺
Hope we can get through the rough times without too much weight damage. Better times ahead.2 -
So yes it’s summer in central Texas....

you must feel like you’re going up in flames, Yooly.
I’m so glad we don’t have that here… It’s actually been a beautiful 70ish degrees almost every day1 -
looks a tad too warmish!

Air conditioning 24/7 until November- if we’re lucky. I see our low nightly temperatures exceed the Canadian high temps. Nothing like a humid 85 degrees at midnight!2

7 pm, the sun is setting and it’s 94 degrees out there. 🤬 I know this happens every year but I still don’t like it. It’s just not right!

My eating is out of control. I’ve been dealing with the sudden death of my beloved nephew last week. The whole family is devastated. And I’m dreading the trip to Ohio for the memorial service. Being far away allows me to pretend it isn’t true.
I’ve never expected that someone I held as a baby and watched grow into a fine man would be gone before me. And to ache for my sister who has lost one of her children.
So I’ve been soothing the grief by comfort eating. I need to get it under control.2 -
I am so very sorry for your family's loss Yooly.1
-
I am so sorry for your loss Yooly. Be kind to yourself.1
-
Oh, Yooly. What a heartbreak. So sad to think of what you and your family are experiencing.
How how how do we learn new methods of self-soothing? Keeping myself busy is the only one that seems(ed) to work for me, until it didn't.
You are smart, strong and determined. I hope that helps you hold onto a thread of control - or a thread connected to the thread of control.2 -
Thank you all! Or perhaps y’all. It’s a comfort to have so much support. I’m feeling more in control today. Not so much because I want to be in control but that I can’t let the eating get away from me.2

Hugs to you, Yooly.0
